At Healthier Weight, we are here to help people manage their weight loss and Chrissie Twigg, Healthier Weight Managing Director, is always touched when patients take the time to write and thank the team. Here is a letter from "Mrs X" 2009.
Dear Dr Ashton
It is now over two years since I had a gastric band via Healthier Weight and I cannot adequately express my thanks for the enormous difference it has made to my life and general well-being.
As you will know from your own records, the band worked well for me over the first twelve months or so and although my weight increased when the band was emptied whilst my gall bladder problem was resolved, the weight soon disappeared when the band was refilled and I am consistently around 11 stones 12 lbs (Mrs X was nearly 17 stones before her operation).
There have been enormous benefits to me from having this procedure, blood pressure is normal, my diabetes risk has vastly diminished, I have much more energy and am able to enjoy this beautiful county (Pembrokeshire) and equally importantly, I now quite like myself!
In all my years of dieting I have never sustained my weight loss for this length of time and I am now confident that I will never again be considered obese thanks to the band. The whole process through your clinic has been well explained and well supported at every stage and has been the best investment I have ever made.
My grateful thanks to you and your team
Yours sincerely
Mrs X
2009
